SWITCH TO MASTODON FFS
The shocking part isn’t that they did it, or that they even admitted to it, but that there was actually an employee there in a position to actually admit anything in some capacity.
It’s like Twitter and that manchild on top try to make the worst possible decision at any issue over and over again.
Here is another one for the 2024 Bullshit Bingo: Twitter employees sacrifice orphaned children to their dark gods. Some users consider using the site a little less for a few days.
This is the best summary I could come up with:
Social media major X (formerly Twitter) has admitted to taking down accounts and posts related to the ongoing farmers’ protests in India.
X user and Indian journalist Mohammed Zubair wrote on Monday that “many influential X accounts” of reporters, influencers and prominent farm unionists covering farmers’ protest in India were “suspended”.
Mandeep Punia, a journalist, told the BBC that his account and that of his news platform - Gaon Savera - have been withheld.
India’s main opposition Congress party has criticised the government for the clampdown, accusing it of trying to silence dissenting voices in a democratic country.
The protesters have been attempting to march to India’s capital, Delhi, from the neighbouring states of Punjab, Haryana and Uttar Pradesh.
Haryana and Uttar Pradesh states, which are ruled by the governing Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), have deployed a large number of police and paramilitary troops to stop the farmers from reaching Delhi.
